She felt certain that Millicent was pumping her for her own pleasure. "Your brother never mentioned the King Solomon's mine of gold and the jewels," Millicent said laughingly; "yet even my men were talking about it quite openly on my homeward journey. Mike and I were so careful we never mentioned a word about it.
Indeed, so much was he taken up with this pump that he could not be prevailed on to return on shore, but sent a canoe to fetch his favourite stool, on which he seated himself, and spent the remainder of the day in pumping the bilge-water out of the ship!
He looked like a genial, half-grown, young fellow, and I do not think I shall have any difficulty in pumping him when he returns, as I know where his stand is." "Right again," I exclaimed.
Frank took charge of the engine, and Jack stood by to see that he did the right thing, and the boat purred through the waters at a speed which she had never been called upon to make before. Presently the steamer showed up, pumping great columns of smoke into the sweet air, and the chase was on in earnest.
For three days my father insisted upon the old woman pumping the gas out of his body; after that he again fell into one of his sound sleeps, which lasted nearly thirty hours. When he arose, I went again to see him. It was eight o'clock in the evening, and I entered with a candle. "Take it away quick, take it away; put it out carefully." "Why, what's the matter, sir?"

One means of effecting this may be simply indicated.
"Convulsively they swear, Still writhe the rabble rout, Engaged with anxious care In pumping Lethe out." Ye Christians, good and meek, This vision bear in mind; If journalists ye seek, Attempt their thumbs to find. Defects they often hide, As folks whose hairs are gone We see with wigs supplied Probatum! I have done!
"That's all right," said Dorothy. "We don't mind how you go, I'm sure." At one side of the street was a paper pump, and a paper boy was pumping paper water into a paper pail. The Yellow Hen happened to brush against this boy with her wing, and he flew into the air and fell into a paper tree, where he stuck until the Wizard gently pulled him out.
But Mel.... Well, I suppose we must expect queer things. I got a jolt this morning. I was pumping my sister Margie about everybody, and, of course, Mel's name came up. You remember Margie and Mel were as thick as two peas in a pod. Looks like Mel's fall has hurt Margie. But I don't just get Margie yet. She might be another fellow's sister for all the strangeness of her."
